The best time for Qixian Folk Museum (Qiao Family Courtyard) is spring and autumn.

Zheng, a famous architectural expert, said: Beijing has the Forbidden City, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and Qixian has thousands of households. The dwellings in Qixian County are French in Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The most famous is the Qiao Family Courtyard, which is the residence of Qiao Zhiyong, a famous commercial and financial capitalist in Qing Dynasty.

The Qiao Family Courtyard was built in the years of Qing Qianlong and Jiaqing, covering an area of 9 180.8 square meters, with a building area of 4042.4 square meters. It is a magnificent building complex, which embodies the unique style of residential buildings in northern China in Qing Dynasty. The exterior is majestic and tall, like a castle, and the interior is magnificent, with both ups and downs, changing artistic conception, exquisite structure and excellent materials. Courtyard doors, cornices, stone carvings, brick carvings, dental plates and painted gold ornaments can be seen everywhere, with exquisite workmanship and unique features, showing the superb architectural technology of our working people. It has high research value in architectural aesthetics and folk customs, and has been praised by many experts and scholars as a pearl of northern residential buildings in the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, there is a saying that the royal family has the Forbidden City and the houses look at the jstars. Many scholars were amazed after visiting; Qiao Yuan's "Sanjin" is the essence of folk customs. It is a perfect combination with the simple folk custom display.

The Qiao Family Courtyard is located in the middle of Qiaojiabao Village in Qixian County. This is a magnificent building complex. Overlooking the layout of the courtyard from the air is like a symbol of double happiness. The whole compound covers an area of 8,724 square meters, with a building area of 3,870 square meters. It is divided into six courtyards, 20 small courtyards and 3 13 rooms. The courtyard looks like a castle, facing the street on three sides, surrounded by a closed brick wall, more than three feet high, with a parapet and a watchtower on it, which is safe and firm and magnificent. Its exquisite design and exquisite craftsmanship fully reflect the unique style of residential buildings in Qing Dynasty in China, which has high ornamental, scientific research and historical value. It is indeed an unparalleled treasure house of art, and is rightly praised as a pearl of northern residential buildings by experts and scholars. No wonder someone said with emotion after visiting: There is the Forbidden City in the royal family, and people live in the Qiao family.

Entering the gate of Qiaojiayuan is an 80-meter-long straight stone tunnel, which divides six courtyards into two rows, north and south, with slope protection on both sides of the tunnel. At the end of the west is the ancestral hall of the Qiao family, which corresponds to the distant gate. There are four main buildings in the compound, including six gatehouses, watchtowers and watchtowers. There are walkways on the roof of every hospital to patrol and protect the hospital. Looking at the whole hospital, from the outside, it is majestic and tall, neat and dignified; Looking into the courtyard, it is resplendent and orderly, showing the living style of feudal families in northern China. The whole compound, with strict layout, exquisite architecture and diverse specifications, not only has a sense of beauty as a whole, but also has its own characteristics in local buildings, even the 140 chimney on the roof has its own characteristics. Pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, and golden powder piles in the whole courtyard fully demonstrate the superb architectural art level of the working people in ancient China, and are indeed rare artistic treasures.

The compound was built in the 20th year of Qing Qianlong (A.D. 1756). It was expanded twice and repaired once. The first expansion was presided over by Qiao Zhiyong during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, and the second expansion was in the middle and late Guangxu period, with Qiao Jingyi and Joe in charge. The last revision was completed by Joe and Qiao Yingkui ten years after the Republic of China. It took nearly two centuries from the construction to the final completion of the current pattern. Although the time span is very long, the subsequent expansion and addition can be carried out according to the original idea, so that the whole courtyard style is consistent and integrated.

According to the traditional name, there are three courtyards in the north of the Qiao Family Courtyard, which are called Old Courtyard, Northwest Courtyard and Study Courtyard in turn from east to west. The three courtyards in the south are Southeast Courtyard, Sananing Courtyard and New Courtyard. The names of the North and South Six Courtyards show the architectural order of each courtyard of the Qiao Family Courtyard.

During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, part of the place where the Qiao Family Courtyard was located happened to be the intersection of streets and lanes in Qiaojiabao Village. After Joe separated from his two older brothers, he bought several homesteads at the northeast corner of the crossroads and built a building. The main building is a brick building with a hard peak and a brick-wood structure, with windows and no doors, and stairs are built indoors to go upstairs. It is characterized by thick walls and small windows. It is strong and firm, and it is a courtyard five miles away. To the east of the main building is the original house, which has also been decorated into a side yard. It also converted the second entrance of the side courtyard into a bookstore, which is the earliest courtyard of the Qiao family courtyard and the old courtyard. According to legend, there used to be a five-temple outside the courtyard, and there were two locust trees in front of the temple, which were surprisingly long and people called them sacred trees. After the Qiao family obtained the right to use this land, they originally planned to move the temple instead of the tree. Later, Joe had an all-American dream at night, in which Kim told him, "The tree is alive, the temple is rich, and it hits it off, and the ancestors move together." . Four or five steps east is where the tree lives. If the temple moves the tree, it will not move, and the tree will not be rich. Soon, this tree will die. Joe America was afraid of offending the gods, so he moved the tree according to the instructions in his dream. This tree has really come back to life, and its branches and leaves are as lush as before. This seems to be a manifestation of the true god. It really has its god, so a five-hall was built in front of the side courtyard, which still exists today. At the same time, there is a big brick-carved underground palace between the main courtyard and the side courtyard, carved with stone mountains and ganoderma lucidum deer. There are four brick lions and a handle on the forehead of the underground palace, which symbolizes the happiness of the four seasons. There are also sycamore trees on the temple wall, and six pairs of deer are combined together, which means Liuhe is smooth.

After Qiao Zhiyong took power, he continued to build a big house for Everbright. He bought a large homestead in the alley on the west side of the old courtyard and built a building compound, which is also five miles away, forming a two-story confrontation. The main building is a structure of exposed columns hanging from the top of the mountain. Guomen, the bayonets of the gatehouse are silver riding deer and Baizitu woodcarving. The floor has a balcony corridor. In the corridor, there is a brick railing in front, with a picture of a hundred grapes in the middle and nightshade and magpies in the east. In the west, herons play lotus flowers and sparrows play chrysanthemums. There is a wood carving on the top, engraved with the image of Bo Gu of Solanum nigrum. You can see the whole hospital from the balcony. Because the two floors of the courtyard are juxtaposed with alleys and the north and south buildings are inclined, it is called double ingot style.

After the Ming Building was completed, Qiao Zhiyong built two quadrangles opposite the second floor, which made the four courtyards just located at the four corners of the intersection of streets and lanes, laying the foundation for later integration.

In the middle and late Guangxu period, the local public security was unstable. In order to protect their own safety, Qiao's family and Jingyan spent a lot of money to buy the right to occupy the street at that time. After the Qiao family obtained possession, they blocked the alley, and the alley built the northwest yard and side yard of southwest Nanning; Blocked the street corner in the east and built the city gate; The ancestral temple was built in the west; Outside the courtyard on the second floor in the north, it was expanded into two outer courtyards and two new gates were built. There is a fence cross frame in the courtyard, with arches as bridges, connecting the north and south courtyards, forming a castle-like building complex.

In the early years of the Republic of China, the population of the Qiao family increased and the housing was insufficient, so they bought land and expanded to the west. Ten years after the Republic of China, Joe and Qiao Yingkui built a new courtyard similar to the southeast courtyard next to Sainaning. However, the windows are all carved with large lattice glass, decorated with western style, and the Zhu Guang effect is also very good, obviously the style has changed. Even the wall facing the door in the yard is carved very carefully. At the same time, the northwest courtyard was also designed and transformed by Joe, which separated the open gallery connecting the outer courtyard with the old courtyard and transformed it into the living room together with the original kitchen. Also built a bathroom next to the living room, repaired the foreign toilet, adding exotic customs.

Near the northwest courtyard, there used to be a small courtyard, which was the home of the jstars, so it was called the study courtyard. After separation, Qiao Jian planned to build an inner garden and bought a full set of rockeries from a shabby family in Taigu County. While it was under construction, the July 7th Incident broke out, the Japanese invaded China, and the project stopped. During the Japanese occupation, the whole family fled, leaving an empty yard, leaving only some family members to take care of it. Today, the Qiao Family Courtyard has become a dazzling pearl in the northern dwellings.

The gate of the jstars courtyard is an arched doorway with a high top floor. In the middle of the top floor, there is a plaque of Shanxi Governor presented by Empress Dowager Cixi, on which are written four big characters: Fu Zhong Lang Huan. The black painted door leaf is equipped with a pair of big copper rings on the scorched earth beast street, and a pair of couplets is inlaid on the copper floor: children and grandchildren are wise, and the clan will be big; Brotherhood is the fat of the family. Between the lines, it reveals Master Joe's hope and pursuit of nave. Maybe this is the way to manage the family. After several generations' efforts, Joe has achieved prosperity in nave.

There is a sapphire embedded in the middle of the top of the gate, and the book has an ancient style. The vigorous brushwork and the original intention of inheriting the ancient simple lifestyle represented by these two words complement each other and are intriguing. On the mask wall opposite the gate, there is a brick-carved centenary picture, with similar words and elegant words. On both sides of the wall are meaningful sealed couplets inscribed by Qing minister Zuo: an article that hurts others' desire to restore justice and accumulate morality. The amount is the sum of the shoes. This is in line with the golden mean that the Qiao family, a big businessman, advocates and values harmony. Enter the gate and walk through the long tunnel. At the end of the west is the Qiao's Ancestral Hall carved with dragons, which corresponds to the gate. The ancestral hall is decorated with three steps, and the temple structure is decorated with lion head columns, white marble carvings, long-lived handrails and wooden fans. The eaves are supported by four pillars, two of which are bright and two are dark. There are hollowed-out woodcarvings of Yushu Jiaorong, Lan Xin Guifu and Luo Teng Raosong on the stigma, which are beautifully decorated and magnificent. There is a plaque on his forehead with the words "Zhou Ren Puyi" inscribed by Li Hongzhang. The ancestral hall used to display the ancestral tablets with three layers of wood carvings.

The tunnel divides the six courtyards into two rows, north and south. The three courtyards in the north are all open doors with hidden columns and corridors, which are convenient for cars and cars to enter and exit. There are horse pillars and stones outside the door. Counting from east to west, the first and second hospitals are houses with three entrances and five rings, which are typical buildings in Qixian area, and are connected by a hall inside and outside. The north of the inner court is the main room, with two floors, corresponding to the gatehouse of the outer court, which is magnificent. From the entrance of the main courtyard to the main room above, there are three steps to take in Lian Deng, which not only symbolizes the auspicious meaning of ascending to the third level and looking far, but also is the scientific arrangement of the architectural level.

The South Third Hospital is a four-in-one room with two entrances and two exits. On the hard top of the mountain, there is a stepped gatehouse, which spans in the west and in the east. The middle and the other two houses are slightly different. The front is the main room, and there is a side door at the air duct of the main hall that communicates with the side room. The whole row of south courtyard, the main courtyard is inhabited by ethnic minorities, and the partial courtyard is a flower garden and a servant dormitory. The roof of each main courtyard of the South Courtyard is covered with a watchtower, and the corresponding watchtower is equipped to connect the whole courtyard.

The Qiao Family Courtyard is famous in the world, not only because it has magnificent houses as a complex, but also because it embodies exquisite architectural skills in every brick, tile, wood and stone. Brick carvings, woodcuts and colored paintings can be seen everywhere in the Sixth Hospital of North and South. From the door structure, there are hard mountain single-eaved brick gatehouse, half-eaved door, stone carving side-span door, one bucket with three liters and eleven pairs of inclined instrument doors. The forms of windows include imitation rosewood window, ceiling diamond window, grille window, carved window, double window, suspended window and large lattice window. , multifarious, emerge in endlessly. From the roof, there are rest peaks, hard peaks, suspended peaks, rolling shed roofs and bungalow roofs. , forming a flat, low, high, convex, ridgeless, ridged, upturned and vertical arc. Every place is unique. Up close, it's really pleasing to the eye and memorable.

Woodcarving: quadrangles are even more charming. They are exquisite board painting techniques and exquisite woodcarving art that can be seen everywhere. All carvings have their own folk customs. Different figures are engraved on the main entrance of each courtyard. For example, the main entrance of the first hospital is the rolling gate building, which has hanging columns and hemp leaves. Last month's Liang Douzi, Ka Fengyun Zi and thirteen dry fights, including column fights, gladiators, mixed fights and nine crows, are excellent techniques. The second door, like the first door, is a chrysanthemum bayonet with dry lines on the window and a grass dragon rotating disk in the middle. The woodcarving bayonet of Sanmen is a picture of a hundred grapes.

There is a three-star picture on the woodcarving at the main entrance of the Second Hospital, also known as a three-star photo. The woodcarvings at the entrance of the Second Hospital are: Flower Bo Gu and God of Wealth XiShen. This painting "Flower Bo Gu" is a kind of miscellaneous painting. Song Huizong, the Grand View of the Northern Song Dynasty, ordered the antiquities hidden in Xuanhe Hall to be compiled and painted as a map of Bo Gu. Later generations painted on utensils to form decorative handicrafts, commonly known as Bo Gu. For example, the picture of Bo Gu, decorated with flowers and fruits, makes the picture complete, and it is called Flower Bo Gu. The main gatehouses are the Antarctic fairy riding deer and the ancient philosophers' map. Other woodcarvings include God Bless the People, Risheng Yuan Yue, Kirin pine nuts, Lucky Treasure, Fu Lushou Samsung and Hehe Erxian. Harmony two immortals, also known as harmony two saints, is a kind of folk fairy tale painting. Tian Rucheng in the Ming Dynasty said in Notes on Visiting the West Lake: Song and Sui Dynasties worshipped their brothers in the twelfth lunar month, with a human figure, unkempt head and a smile, dressed in green, holding a drum in his left hand and a stick in his right hand, and the cloud was the god of harmony. Sacrifice can make people thousands of miles away go home, so it is called ten thousand times. Later, it was divided into Er Shen and called Hehe Erxian. The two immortals are also smiling, holding a lotus, a round one, meaning harmony. In the past, the hall was usually hung at weddings to show good luck.

In addition, there are many kinds of wood carvings on the stigma. Such as the Eight Horses, the Pine Bamboo and the Grape, it shows that vines are long and fertile, tall and strong; Hibiscus, Osmanthus fragrans, Evergreen, representing Millennium wealth; The wooden clip fan in the hall is carved with large relief flowers of the four seasons and the Eight Immortals, which is one of the traditional decorative patterns. It's the birthday of the Eight Immortals. The legendary Eight Immortals, including Han Zhongli, Zhang, Han Xiangzi, Li Tie Guai, Cao Guojiu, Lan Caihe and He Xiangu, went to Yaochi to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother of the West. The pictures they draw are very beautiful and lifelike. There are more than 300 woodcarving artworks in the hospital, so I won't list them here.

Brick carving: Brick carving technology can be seen everywhere with a wide range of subjects. There are wall carvings, ridge carvings, screen carvings and handrail carvings. For example, there are four lions carved on the gate of a hospital, that is, four lions spit clouds. There are two immortals carved on the horse's head, carrying gold and silver treasures. Orchids are engraved on the collar. There is a tapestry of turtle's back on the wall, which is a traditional decorative pattern and a continuous geometric figure composed of hexagonal skeleton. Its name is because it looks like the back of a turtle. In ancient times, tortoise shell was used as a tool for divination and was regarded as a sign of good or bad luck. The ancient book "Yi Shu Ji" said: The turtle hair is a thousand years old, living for five thousand years is called a god turtle, and living for ten thousand years is called a spirit turtle. Turtle is a spirit with a long life, which is used as a pattern to show good luck and prolong life. There is a large brick altar opposite the gate of the First Hospital, carved with pine trees, tung trees and nine deer riding on the stone mountain of Taihu Lake, indicating that the Nine Roads are unblocked. There are four lions rolling hydrangeas on the pillar; Five handrails are carved on the south wall of the First Affiliated Hospital, with a picture of a hundred grapes in the middle, indicating that vines are long and fertile, and the other four squares are Bo Gu pictures. Four seasons flowers are carved on the horse's head of the main courtyard of the First Hospital. There are four fruits and eight dark immortals on the horse's head in the Second Hospital. The Dark Eight Immortals is also a traditional decorative pattern, which consists of artifacts held by the Eight Immortals in ancient legends. According to legend, when Han Zhong is happy, he gently shakes a small fan and often holds a small fan. Lv Dongbin's sword is brilliant and enchanting, often with a sword; Zhang fish drum has Sanskrit sound and often holds fish drum; Cao Guojiu's jade plate is clear and clear, and he often holds a jade plate; Tie Guai Li not only saved Five Blessingg in the gourd, but also often took a gourd; Han Xiangzi's purple flute dried Man Jing, often holding a flute; Blue and flower baskets contain nothing, often with flower baskets; He Xiangu always holds the lotus flowers, never touching the dust. Because they only use objects and don't draw immortals, they are called dark eight immortals, which means auspiciousness and is used in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The front of the horse's head at the entrance of the Second Hospital is rhinoceros, and the side is the flowers of the four seasons. The railings in the front corridor of the main building of the Second Hospital are carved from east to west. First, the magpie is on the plum tree, second, it is empty, third, the ancient philosophers of grapes, fourth, the heron plays the lotus, fifth, the sparrow plays the chrysanthemum. Four seasons of flowers and fruits are engraved on the gate of the East PianYuan, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are also auspicious.

In the big corridor of the Third Hospital, there are Kirin in front of the horse's head and pine, bamboo, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum on the side. Chinese painting is a general term with four kinds of flowers as its theme, and flower-and-bird painting is its branch. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, many painters liked to paint Mei Lan Jia Song, and they were called three friends in the cold year with Song, Zhu and Mei. In the Yuan Dynasty, Zhenwu added orchids to his three friends and became a famous figure among the four friends. During the Wanli period of Ming Shenzong (A.D. 1573 16 19), Huang Feng was also called the Four Gentlemen in the Four Books of Mei Zhu Lan Ju compiled by him. Later generations add pine trees or daffodils and strange stones, which are collectively called Wuqing or Una. In the Qing Dynasty, Wang outlined the third series of Biography of Mustard Seed, namely "Jumei Sipu". This kind of theme symbolizes noble character and the spirit of integrity, strength, tenacity, optimism and fear of violence.

In the gate building of the Fourth Courtyard, there is an incense burner, with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting beside it. There are four lions, Megan's dragon head, four seasons flowers and rich flowers in the courtyard. There is also a wall, inscribed by Zhao Tieshan. On the right is the Eight Immortals of Darkness, and the lion rolls hydrangeas to show peace and happiness. There are also Phoenix Opera and deer and crane in the same spring. On the left are Pisces and Qing Ji, which are auspicious pictures. They are one of the traditional decorative patterns. They refer to the pictures composed of Qing Ji in ancient weapons, Qi Qing and fish patterns in musical instruments. The homophonic harmony of fish and fish shows that it is more than enough. There are grapes and chrysanthemums in the gatehouse of the West Cross, and portraits of Qin, Qi, calligraphy and painting and Bo Gu are on the railing. Four horseheads have four lions on the front and four seasons flowers on the side. In particular, the sculpture "The Proverbs of Saving Points", like the sculpture "One Hundred Days of Life" mentioned above, is also a rare artistic treasure.

The gate of the Fifth Courtyard is headed by Kirin, and the four heads in the courtyard are deer cranes and pine trees. The gatehouse in the south principal room is a hundred chrysanthemums, with the seven-star Wu Wen in the middle, also known as the Seven Towers, Eight Towers and Seven Clever Pictures. A clever painting of Tanabata is the theme of folk fairy tales. Tanabata is the seventh night of the seventh lunar month. Legend has it that cowherd and weaver girl meet in Tianhe. That night, the woman tied a ribbon and put on a seven-hole needle, and Chen Guaguo was courting. Cowherd and Weaver Girl are all star names and have evolved into mythical figures. The Weaver Girl is the granddaughter of the Emperor of Heaven, who has been weaving brocade for many years. Since I married the cowherd in Hexi, knitting has been interrupted. The Emperor of Heaven was furious and ordered him to be separated from the Cowherd. He is only allowed to meet once a year on the seventh night of July. According to "Custom Pass", when the Weaver Girl knew the Cowherd, the magpie bridged the Tianhe River and named it Magpie Bridge. The clever picture of Qixi was first made by Hou Yi, a painter in the Northern Song Dynasty, and then gradually spread widely.

There are magpies climbing plums on both sides of the entrance to the East Hospital of the Sixth Hospital, and there are big characters such as bamboo and Fu Lushou on the back. Four horseheads are eight dark immortals. There are grapes on the railing of the main house, lotus flowers in the east and peony in the west. There is a temple in the front yard, and there are two lifelike lions and a more auspicious and festive pattern on the Babao map.

Stone Carving: Although the stone carving technology of Qiao Family Courtyard is relatively rare, it is very fine. There are several pairs of stone lions with different shapes and innocence. Some stone lions are marching forward, and the new cutting lines and sharp edges show vigilance, strength and vitality. It looks at the arrogant head and holds up the air all over the body, showing the grandeur, courage and no distortion of a lion, giving people a healthy, active and energetic feeling.

There are also engraved yinxian. For example, the base of the stone lion crouching at the gate of the Fifth Courtyard is a golden lion and a white elephant, and in the middle is a monkey (Hou) on horseback, the adopted son of Yanshan, the first generation. The bottom pad of the column in the south room is used for fishing and ploughing, as well as Ma Gu's birthday celebration. On the stone foundation crouching at the entrance of the Sixth Hospital, there are line carvings such as entering the phase, paying homage to Lei Yu (according to legend, ancient Shen Tu and Lei Yu were door gods to ward off evil spirits and avoid ghosts) and returning to the DPRK with victory. The image is clear, the story is fascinating, the lines are smooth and the image is realistic.

Painting: There are real gold paintings under the eaves of all rooms in the whole compound, mainly focusing on character stories. In addition to the godson of Yanshan, Ma Gu's birthday, full beds, fishing and firewood, flowers, insects and birds, as well as railways, trains, stations, clocks and other patterns. These patterns piled with Gionee powder and Sanlan's color paintings have their own characteristics. The gold foil used is of high purity. Although weathered, it still shines. The powder setting process is very detailed, and it is necessary to dry one layer and then another layer, so that one layer is piled up until a realistic relief of an ornament is made, and then gold plating is carried out. Golden paintings are smeared by oil stains on people's heads. Because it is too thin, we should choose a sunny day without rain and wind before the operation. It can be seen that it is quite laborious and time-consuming to complete a pattern work. All the other lines are painted with gold and painted with bottom, which are all natural stone colors, so they can be preserved for a long time and have bright colors.

Plaques: There are many plaques hanging on the gate of Qiao's compound, of which four are the most valuable. Among them, three plaques belong to the Qiao family, which is also worthy of the pride and glory of the Qiao family. That is, Zhou Ren Puyi written by Li Hongzhang in the fourth year of Guangxu, Ding Baoquan, the governor of Shanxi, received the blessing of nirvana in fire from Empress Dowager Cixi, and six lines of gifts given to Qiao Yingkui by thirty-six villages in Hedong, Changyuan, Qixian County in the sixteenth year of the Republic of China. The first two pieces show that the contribution of the Qiao family to the imperial court in a certain period was praised by the inscription of the imperial court officials, so it was doubly glorious. The latter piece also reflects some good deeds and ways of dealing with people from one side. Another piece of high value is a pavilion inscribed by Fu Shan (now displayed in the East Room of the Fourth Hospital of Qiao's). After the Feng Dan Pavilion was completed, Fu Shan inscribed a plaque for it. At the same time, Dai Ting made comments on Feng Danting Ji, and Fu Shan made a postscript to it. One plaque, two notes and three postscript, every sentence is puzzling. After careful analysis, the main idea of Dai Ting's The Story of Feng Danting is:1in September 660, he had a dream that he was walking outside the city with several people dressed in ancient costumes. Suddenly, a big change happened. When I look back, there is no smooth road. There is a cliff in front, covered with maple and pine trees, and there is a small pavilion in the middle, and the plaque says "Feng Dan". After waking up, he built the Feng Dan Pavilion in the style of his dream. In fact, Dai Ting's dream of traveling in ancient costumes is a nostalgia for the old country. Great changes have taken place, which means political changes. The real meaning of Feng Danting Ji is: When the country perished, the national disaster was imminent, and the building of Feng Danting entrusted the pain of the Ming Dynasty. Fu Shan said in the postscript of Feng Dan Ting Ji: "Dan is the center of reading, maple is a pavilion-style word, and pavilion is a pavilion-style reading place." . Therefore, the pavilion is named maple leaf, and the word Dan is written in front to show eye-catching. Dan means red and loyalty; Maple stands for integrity and red, full of nostalgia for Zhujiajian Island in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, there are hospital numbers, such as Rao, Shen Jiande, Yisheng, long reading, a hundred years of training, just seeking eternity, being the best for good, being prepared for danger in times of peace, treating happiness, building a home, watching the pavilion and climbing Yun Zheyue, all of which have their specific meanings.

In a word, the Qiao Family Courtyard is not only a treasure house of architectural art, but also a hall of folk customs. Stepping into it can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery, but also increase people's knowledge. Therefore, visiting Qixian Folk Museum will benefit you from all aspects of art, science, culture and interest. I'm glad you came.
